About Bravehearts

Bravehearts was established in 1996, by its founder Hetty

Johnston AM, with the aim of making Australia the safest place

in the world to raise a child.

Since then, Bravehearts has grown exponentially and now

provides services nationally with our counselling service,

advocacy and support call centre service, education show,

and training programs for the whole community.

Bravehearts has seen more than half a million children across

the country with its Keep Safe education show, and provides

an average of 5000 face-to-face counselling sessions per

year, and responds to more than 10,000 phone and email

enquiries annually.

Bravehearts relies on community support to fund the work we

do and individual contributions are critical. Without this

important source of funding, Bravehearts will not be able to

continue providing our current services or expand our services

into high need areas.

How will your support help?

Corporate and Business supporters are integral to our

organisation. Their support helps to fund our education

programs and counselling services across the country, as well

as helping to cover the cost of essential administration and

client support staff, without whom our services could not be

delivered.

Your support will enable us to reach more regional and remote

areas with our education programs, and provide us with the

ability to run counselling sessions for those who may not be

able to afford the service.

Funds donated in 2016 allowed us to;

Educate 115,149 Australian children, including 29,500 in regional and remote

areas of North Queensland and Far North Queensland

Provide 4,556 counselling sessions for children and parents in need

Assist with the completion of 5,713 phone counselling sessions

Our Mission is to

prevent child sexual

assault in our society.

Our Vision is to

make Australia the

safest place in the world

to raise a child.

Our Guiding

Principles are to at

all times, do all things

to serve our Mission

without fear or favour

and without

compromise, and to

continually ensure that

the best interests and

protection of the child

are placed before all

other considerations.

Ways to help

Below are some of the ways in which companies and businesses can help support

Bravehearts. As well as providing financial support, Bravehearts also welcomes

support through services or goods in kind.

Workplace Giving

Workplace Giving is a simple and effective way for companies to support our cause

while also being a great opportunity for staff engagement. Workplace giving

programs allow employees the opportunity to donate a nominated amount each

pay cycle to the charity. Many workplaces also engage with a Dollar-4-Dollar

matching scheme to encourage further staff engagement within their organisations.

Any Dollar-4-Dollar matching is tax deductible. Bravehearts will send regular updates

on how your contributions are helping to protect Australian children, and will

publically thank your company for its support across a variety of channels.

Percentage of sales

Businesses can choose to donate a percentage of their sales each quarter to the

organisation. This can be set up as an ongoing initiative, or a seasonal donation

depending on the needs and preferences of your company. All donations are tax

deductible to your company and will be publically recognised by Bravehearts

across a variety of channels.

Regular Giving

Another very convenient option for companies is to set up a regular giving program,

whereby each month, a predetermined figure is donated to Bravehearts. This is a

simple and effective way for companies to ensure they reach any donation target

they set for themselves, and again all donations are tax deductible.

Bravehearts is very grateful to all our donors, and will ensure that they are

recognised appropriately for their generous support.

Sponsorships

Bravehearts has sponsorship opportunities available for companies and businesses of

all sizes. These can range from event sponsorships, to sponsoring the pilot of a new

program or service. When these are available, they are found on our website. You

can also be added to our database to receive these sponsorship proposals when

they become available for review at your discretion.

Sponsorships do incur GST, however they come with strict acknowledgement and

promotional guidelines that are agreed upon by both parties prior to any

agreement being signed.

Our current sponsorship opportunity is for a national sporting event – Bravehearts 777

Marathon. Information for this sponsorship opportunity is available upon request.

Recognition of your support

We have detailed the way in which partners and supporters are recognised (as a

minimum) for their generous contribution towards protecting Australian kids. This

supporter structure is available to companies and businesses who support our work

both financially, as well as through in-kind services or goods to the values mentioned

below.
